Richard Allen (NYU) tells me that Prof. Ray Carney, author of books on Dreyer, Mike Leigh, and the great John Cassavetes, has been intrepidly anti-Hitchcock for many years. Recently Carney castigated Allen's "Camera Movement in VERTIGO" published on my website (http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~muffin/camera_movement.html). Now I've defended Hitchcock on the same website, on mainly philosophical grounds, here: http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~muffin/news-home_c.html. (The two pieces by me, dated September 29 and 30, include a link to Carney's pieces. They also include a link, furthering my argument, to a review by me of Lesley Brill's 'Crowds, Power, and Transformation in Cinema', a book applying the theories of Elias Canetti to film.) I'd welcome feedback from interested persons. Thanks - Ken Mogg http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~muffin/news-home_c.html * * Film-Philosophy Email Discussion Salon.
